Banish those December chills with heart-warming music
Haaretz - November 24, 2006
Performer Aoife Clancy, best known for her fusion of traditional Celtic and
American music, will be headlining this year's Jacob's Ladder Winter Weekend
on December 8 and 9. Clancy, the daughter of Irish music legend Bobby Clancy
of the popular 1960s Irish folk music singing group the Clancy Brothers, is
traveling to Israel for the first time to perform at the Nof Ginosar
festival.
A biannual event also known as the Anglo Mimouna, Jacob's Ladder has been
holding a spring festival geared towards folk-music lovers in Israel for
nearly 30 years. This is their third indoor winter festival and is
considered more intimate than the large-scale production that will take
place in May.
The festival will also feature Kahol, an Israeli Celtic band led by Uri
Miles that fuses Irish and Scottish tunes with Middle Eastern rhythms and
sounds. Eitan Glickman, vocalist for Slipjig, will perform Irish pub songs
with members of Black Velvet.
